If the unit is left in a room full of the smoke from cigarettes, etc., for
long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup could get dirty,
in which case it will not be able to read the signals properly.
• About condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of
the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on
the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate
properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power
turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature
before using the unit.

• Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage
the unit or scratch the discs.
• Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired
with adhesive, etc.
• Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels
is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been
removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage
it.
Do not touch the signal surface.

dry them off using a hairdryer, etc.
e CD-R/CD-RW
• Some discs and some recording formats may not be playable.
• Non-finalized discs cannot be played.
Cautions on Storing Discs
b What is finalization?
• Place 8 cm discs in the inner tray guide without using an adapter.
Finalization is the process that makes recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs
playable on compatible players.
• Be sure to remove discs after using them.
• Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust,
scratches, warping, etc.
• Do not store discs in the following places:
1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time
2. Dusty or humid places
NOTE
• “00:00” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.
• “NO DISC” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no disc
is loaded.
Discs with special shapes (heart-
shaped discs, octagonal discs,
etc.) cannot be played. Do not

Connecting the Playback
Components
• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω/ohms. The protection
circuit may be activated if speakers with an impedance other than
specified are used.
Speakers
• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick out
of the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if
the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each
other (v“Protection circuit”).

• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.

If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the connections
of the speaker cables and input cables. If the set’s temperature
is extremely high, wait for it to cool off and improve surrounding
ventilation. After doing this, plug the power cord back in.
If the protection circuit is activated though there are no problems
in ventilation around the set or in connections, the set could be
damaged. Turn off the power, then contact a DENON servicing and
inquiry outlet.
Connecting the Speaker Cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the RCD-CX1,
and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from

the tip of the speaker cable, then either
twist the core wire tightly or terminate
it.
• With some record players, noise may be generated when the ground
wire is connected. If so, disconnect the ground wire.
• Set the CARTRIDGE selection switch to “jMM” or “hMC”
according to the cartridge being used.
